Acura TL-S M5 Edition
Just kidding about the title. I cleared/painted my headlights and I put an angel eye kit around the high beams in my ABP TLS. Changed the look of the car. its amazing. I am really happy because there are 4 ABP TLS's here in town that look just like my car. Lowered on the stock bodykit. so I stand out now. I am sure a lot of ppl are going to ask me to clear their headlghts. I have thought about it and I have no intention of becoming the next MR. . It really is not hard to do. I put the headlight in my oven on 200 degrees and i left it in there for 8 minutes. headlight open up perfectly. I did remove little things attached to the headlight before I cooked it. I have my angel eye kit run to a switch I mounted next to my interior dimmer switch.
I will eventually post pictures. BTW does anyone know where i can get eyelids for my car. preferably CF because I plan to get the CF hood for my car.

Alright guys, i have two classes to go to and then i will post pics, sorry to keep the suspense going. It sounds like I am the first person to do this. I bought the angel eye kit off of ebay. I paid 100 dollars for and it came with the wiring kit. I drilled two hooks into the painted part on the bottom. And later tonight I will post pics of it at night. Thank you all for being sorta patient. i am surprised i have not recieved death threats yet for not posting pics.
Hey guys, I will go to schlotsky;s tonight, aroun 9 hopefully. I am taking a lady out to dinner and I dont want to rush her.

I just saw Drew and his new headlights at Po' Boys on Pensacola Street a few minutes ago. It's a love hate thing. Their unique, to importish for my taste but unique. He parked right in front of me and it sure made my big clear headlights look 80'ish. But I still think I'll be sticking to the cleared look whenever that happens.
Keep in mind though like he said, they look really nice at night displaying the angel eye affect.

Yes I did do it on the high beam part. I just sent hte pics to the guys who posted there email. I would appreciate if they would sent out pics to anyone else who would like to see, I have some stuff i need to do.
One thing I am upset about in regards to my headlight, My passenger side angel has a burned LED out so only have of it lights up. Though I had a bad LED but I took the headlight apart last night and put a good one in. checked it today and it did it again so i have a bad resistor. now i must find the guy who I bought from off of ebay and get a new wiring kit and an LED. Why can our headlights just snap apart like the BMW headlights. I have cooked my headlights more in my oven lately than dinner.
